About
Our Mission
Mountain Sprouts Preschool is dedicated to providing its students with a holistic, natural, and loving environment conducive to learning with reverence and respect for all living things in our world.
Our Philosophy
Mountain Sprouts Preschool is a learning environment for children ages 3 through 5 years old. We believe that the role of the child at this early age is to experience the world first hand and maintain a sense of wonder. Our goal is to teach the children naturally by working through the heart not the head. Our curriculum is therefore structured to nurture the whole child by providing hands-on learning and sensory motor experiences that lay the foundation for further learning and intellectual and social development. We provide an environment where children are encouraged and supported in integrating, understanding and expanding their life experiences through five main disciplines – creative play, community, the natural world, practical work, and the arts. The role of the teacher is that of a guide, fostering good social skills, encouraging language and problem-solving skills, and presenting developmentally appropriate activities. In this way, Mountain Sprouts Preschool aims to provide a warm, safe and stimulating learning environment in which the whole child is nurtured…body, mind and spirit.
